Summary: "The Chinese Communist Party and its policies touch nearly every aspect of life in China and dominate some. An often-quoted current phrase-one with roots in the era of Mao Zedong-says "the Party leads all." Under the leadership of Xi Jinping, the CCP determines much of what is permitted and prohibited in the country's social, economic, and political activity, as well as in China's increasingly consequential foreign relations. Even so, the CCP has always faced limits on what it can control, and it may encounter new obstacles ahead. Leading scholars examine questions about the current and future roles of the party from several disciplinary perspectives, each focusing on a key area of the party and its efforts to lead, control, or influence the world around it. This book offers the most comprehensive and up-to-date assessment of the party's roles in China's economy, government, civil society, legal system, military affairs, and foreign policy. It does so at a critical moment, with the full contours of the Xi Jinping era in China becoming more evident and as the CCP reaches its 100th anniversary and nears three-quarters of a century in power. It will be essential reading for all scholars, students, and policymakers who are interested in contemporary China"-- Provided by publisher.
